A Jihad For Love

From the frontlines of independent filmmaking comes an unprecedented, provocative yet ultimately life-affirming work. It is apparently the first documentary to explore the complex intersections of Islam with homosexuality. Traveling through a worldwide spectrum of Islamic societies, the film documents the stories and struggles of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and transgender Muslims and seeks to end the deafening silence surrounding their lives. Extremely relevant in a post 9-11 world, this remarkable film is about coming back to faith as well as shattering assumptions of religious fundamentalism.
